We use satellites, drones, maps and soil science to answer simple questions about Nepal's forests — how many trees, how healthy, how much carbon — and hand communities, government and donors answers they can act on. Everything is based on real measurement, not guesswork.
Forest data in Nepal is often locked in paper plans and one-off surveys. GeoSutra makes it measurable, comparable and current — so a community forest user group, a division forest office and a donor can all look at the same trustworthy picture and decide what to do next.
UAV orthomosaics, field plots and validated AI — results you can audit against the ground.
We build on open data (GBIF, iNaturalist, FIRMS, ERA5) so our work is transparent and reproducible.
Species, units (ropani, bigha), regulations and silviculture systems built for Nepali forestry.
Optical, multispectral, hyperspectral and LiDAR analysis — canopy cover, height, biomass and forest structure from imagery.
Boundary surveys, land-use/land-cover mapping, suitability and accessibility analysis, and publication-quality maps.
Carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and pH analysed against slope, aspect, elevation and land cover.
Time-series change detection and forest-loss alerts (GLAD/RADD) clipped to your area of interest.
Individual-tree detection (DeepForest) for stem counts, crown area and stand structure.
A free toolbox of calculators, converters and reference data for everyday forestry work.
Every metric we publish traces back to a plot, a flight or an open dataset. Ask us anything.
